Sweet & Spicy Pulled Pork with Stokes Sauces
We are loving the heatwave, it is the perfect excuse to have lots of BBQs as it is too hot to be stuck in the kitchen and put the oven on. Instead, we have been spending most of our evenings outdoors, eating our dinner al fresco.
We were sent a selection of Stokes Sauces to try and were delighted with the wide range of BBQ sauces. There is something to please everyone. If you are a burger fan, you will love the burger relish with sweet red pepper, onion and tomato.
Perhaps you prefer to add a generous amount of tomato ketchup and classic English mustard to your hot dog or lashings of real mayonnaise. Whatever you decide to go for, I am sure you will enjoy!
Stokes Sauces is a small company based in Suffolk, making good and delicious food in small batches using only great ingredients. They take pride in their sauces and work hard to make food that tastes great. As an example, the real mayonnaise is made with 5% extra virgin olive oil and British free range eggs.
One of our favourite summer dishes is pulled pork cooked slowly on the BBQ. Although it takes a while, the wait is definitely worth it. To make the marinade for the meat, you will need the Hot & Spicy sauce with red chillies, the Original Barbecue sauce and Sweet & Sticky sauce with maple and horseradish.
It is best to coat the meat in the sauce and leave in the fridge overnight so the pork can really absorb the delicious flavour of the sauces.
